Stem Cell Therapy

Using stem cell therapy to heal orthopedic issues (osteoarthritis, orthopedic soft tissue injuries) sounds very promising from this news report and from Vet-Stem's website.

I found that there is stem cell research being done on horses in Canada.

Not sure if it is available in Canada yet though for pets.

It was mentioned in the Jump Down Syndrome article as well.
